    When (Y/N) opened her eyes, the black of her vision slowly starting to clear so she could see that again, she was met with two familiar and kind faces, one belonging to a woman and another belonging to a man who looked ill. The man was a human, and the woman was a demon. Something tugged at the corner of her mind that said that she knew who these people were, but not able to fully grasp just how she knew exactly. When trying to get up, she glanced down to see her arms and legs restrained by reinforced steel bands that she couldn't break from for some reason.

"I tested it," the woman said as she placed a hand over (Y/N)'s own, smiling. "It's demon-proof. It means that you won't be able to escape." She then turned to the man next to her who hadn't broken his stare that was focused entirely on (Y/N), the girl finding it uncomfortable and needy the longer she stared back, the woman noticing this and directing his attention away by saying, "She has assimilated vast amounts of Kibutsuji's blood. He forced her to forget. There is also a considerable amount of power radiating from her that makes me think that it was honed to a fine point. He's using her for something. I just don't know what."

"It doesn't matter," the man waved away her words, only wanting to gaze upon (Y/N) now that she was in his grasp and safe again. "(Y/N)? You don't remember me, but my name is Ubuyashiki Kagaya. I am the head of the Demon Slayer Corps."

"Get away from me!" She merely growled as she clawed at her restraints, trying to free herself.

Kagaya swallowed thickly as his kind, violet eyes quickly turned into deadly shards while his hands gripped the bedside dangerously tight. This made her freeze, his overwhelming aura practically consuming her senses. She could tell that he was a dangerous man, one that was two-faced by putting on a kind expression while in reality, he was much more than he let on.

"Ubuyashiki-san," the woman set a hand on his arm to force him to look at her. "I need to begin modifications immediately or Kibutsuji will know where to find you. Please, could I have the room?"

He didn't say anything for a moment.

He only continued to stare with those piercing eyes of his before his expression relaxed into a smile, and he left the room.

"That means you, too, Yushiro," the woman then turned to the other demon present.

(Y/N) jerked her head to the left since she had also felt another presence, but her restraints blocked some of her vision, so it was only when Yushiro stepped forward was she able to have a clear view of him. He looked angry at her, his lips twisted into a scowl while his violet eyes filled with scorn, she not realizing that he despised seeing her like that—seeing her so demonic. With a sigh, he left, leaving (Y/N) alone with the demon woman.
